Hi Gerd
Not sure if this is true. You use a rather complex method to sort the road names before writing the img file. If I got it right, you use a simple sort method which uses String.compareTo() when you sort the index entries.
Where is that? I did see that I have some String.equals() instead of collator.compare() tests in the mdr still. I am changing the ones I find.
There is still the not-found problem, which I will get back to.
I think I have this solved. It is caused by shields. The shield does not count when calculating the offset of the word to be indexed. I believe I have proved that but the code is just a hack, I need to work out how to do this properly.
Good luck! BTW: the display tool r440 uses a method NetHeader.getRoadShift() which is not yet in trunk.
Right sorry about that. ..Steve
